Archery vibration damper

Abstract

Systems described here include assemblies used for damping vibration. Some embodiments include an exo-skeleton with two openings, two inner cores mounted inside the exo-skeleton, two independent fasteners, each with an attachment end and a flange end. In some embodiments, the two independent fastener flange ends are mounted inside the exo-skeleton, each in one of the inner cores, and the two independent fastener attachment ends extending out of their respective opening of the exo-skeleton.

What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A system for damping vibration, comprising:
 a two-piece body configured to be fastened together to form a shell around a hollow interior,
 wherein the shell includes two openings, one opening at each end of the shell; 
 
 a first damper material configured to fit inside a first half of the hollow shell interior; 
 a second damper material configured to fit inside a second half of the hollow shell interior,
 wherein the first damper material and second damper material include a transverse opening through both the first damper material and the second damper material; 
 
 a first fastener configured to fit inside the transverse opening of the first damper material; 
 a second fastener, configured to fit inside the transverse opening of the second damper material,
 wherein each of the two pieces of the shell are generally semi-spherically shaped. 
 
 
     
     
       2. The system of  claim 1  wherein the first fastener and the second fastener each include a flat end and a fastener end. 
     
     
       3. The system of  claim 2  wherein the first fastener end and the second fastener end include screw threads. 
     
     
       4. The system of  claim 2  wherein the first fastener flat end and the second fastener flat end are each wider than the transverse opening through the first damper material and the second damper material. 
     
     
       5. The system of  claim 2  wherein the first damper material and second damper material each include recesses corresponding to a shape of the first fastener flat end and the second fastener flat end. 
     
     
       6. The system of  claim 1  wherein the two-piece body is configured to be secured by screws. 
     
     
       7. The system of  claim 1  wherein the two-piece body is configured to be secured by snaps. 
     
     
       8. The system of  claim 1  wherein the two-piece body is connected by a hinge. 
     
     
       9. The system of  claim 1  wherein the first fastener is configured to mate with a stabilizer for an archery bow and the second fastener is configured to mate with a weight. 
     
     
       10. The system of  claim 1  wherein the two-piece body is made of polymer. 
     
     
       11. The system of  claim 1  wherein the first damper material and second damper material are made of elastomeric plastic. 
     
     
       12. The system of  claim 1  wherein the first damper material and second damper material are made of rubber. 
     
     
       13. The system of  claim 1  wherein the first damper material and second damper material are made of different materials.
